The rumbling sounds, the detonation? and shakings which h:\vo <*auscd ho much excitement and dread at Bald Mountain, have brought forth! many theories to account for the causes. Some havo supposed it the premonitory sounds and quakings which often precede an eruption of iSvc and melted lava. Others have advanced the idea that the mountain is composed of more or less of limestone, and its bowels contain large caves which from some cause or other are fulling in from above. Tho jar and noise produced from the reverberations along these subterranean caverns, some think, is probabls the trne solution of the mystery. Others believe that there are yet remaining several numbers of the celebrated Lowry gang of desperadoes, and since they have been declared outlaws, they have taken to the caverns in the mountains, the passages to and from Which they only arc familiar with, and that as they are obliged frequently to visit the open air, to avoid observation and detection they have ex* 1 1 ~ ? J i T r? yyn \x> |] fk y nicuea large ijumiuuM ui gun v.^. in these caverns, sufUcient to shake the mountain to its very base, and by this means frighten away the tirilid settlers on and around it. However plausible this theory may appear at first, still it is certain that it is not the truth, for it is well known how many there were and who composed this gang, and also what has become of them all. So that this ' .1 T>..? ends tlie laucr lucory. jduu uiu? 13 another, based on scientific knowledge, which is undoubtedly tho true explanation of this perplexing phenomenon. It is well known to ever}* one at all acquainted with accoustics and sound, the moment it is produced, disseminates itself in every direction, unless it meets with obstruction to its passage-, and also that sound can be confined in a great measure within certain limits and will travel in the direction least obstructed. We all know tho marvels of this nature often jo o ji\onlrinrr (TJlllei'v. If \Y 1 llllJ.^VU in it 0 two persons station themselves, one at each end of a tube an eighth of aj mile long, they can converse together) through the tube in a whisper, although they could not hear a loud! shout outside the tube from one to the | other. Hero then, is one of the causes I to explain this mystery Another link is, this Bald Mountain is in part limestone, and it is a well known fact that a stream of considerable magnitude discharges itself in one of the adjoining mountains and disappears. For such a stream there must be an nnrlmvrrniliul COtll'SC foi' a long diS tance. These underground courses aud passage-ways arc quite common in all limestone regions. The great cave of Kentucky is a case in point everybody is familiar with. There can, therefore, be little or no doubt, but the base of Bald Mountain is tunnelled with these passages, made by the action of water on the litneslono, and that these passages extend for a long distance, discharging tho water into the earth as it goes along. This must be so> otherwise the water carried along these subterranean passageways would have come out in a volume somewhere. A part of it may, and probably does feed hundreds of [springs on its passago from the mountain to the lower lands. In traveling " jalong the section 01 country nuui [ Bald Mountain to Boggaifo Cut, on (the Carolina Central Railroad, it ha? been noticed that there aro numerous springs of puro cool water of the 'same taslc. Those who have considered all these things, together with one more important iteu in the calculation that will bo considered presently, have come to the conclusion that there is an underground course from this mountain extending to, and probably under, Boggan's Cut. Boggan's Cut, as it is termed, is a slight elevation of gran.to and sandstone in Anson County, through which a ?ecp cut is now being me.de for the track of the Caroline, Central Railroad. It may not be generally known that Col. Ames, one of the contractors on this road, is using a vast amount of nitro-glycerinc in blasting out naturo's deposits of granite, lifcie and sandstone, at Uoggan's Cut, keeping a largo force at work day and night. This is done by charging immense blasts with nitro-glycerino and discharging them all at a time with a patent battery, arousing the countr}'. for miles aronnd with the terrific: thunder of the explosions. Any one who will take the trouble to noto the time of day or night when the ruwbbling eounds and reports are heard at T}?i,t YTn.i.i+oi'n onH pnmn.iro it with JJU IU .UVUIUUIII, #| '?rthe time when these fearful discharges are made at Boggnn's Cut, cannot fail to come to the conclusion that they arc both produced from the same cause ; due allowance should be made, however, for the time necessary for the sound to travel from the cut through the underground passage to mountain." Here, then, is a natural, simple, and at the same time, scientific explanation of the great marvel, which has brought from the Korth, East and West, to this wonderful mountain, many wiso men with goose quills behind their cars, representing metropolitan newspapers, to investigate the phenomenon. The New York Herald has, as usual, been foremost in this matter. This paper became excited about it, and in one of its issues in large typo asks this question : "Have wo a burning mountain in our midst?" So much stupidity we havo never before seen evinced by newspaper men?verily, a great ado about nothing. Col. Ames is the innocent instrumentality which has brought about all this pother. AVe hope now that it is explained, these writers will let the matter rest But wo cannot closo this article without saying to tho IS'ow York Herald and its money-bag co-adjutors, that if they succeed in persuading the President to veto the finance bill to increaso the circulating medium, they will very soon witness an erup tiou over the South anil West, ot pcnti up feelings, far greater, and taorc| destructive to money kings, than the eruption of a hundred Jiaid Mountains.?

For twelve long years thi< villainous fraud upon Dracott had been kept up, depriving him of his liberty, and compelling him to associate with lunatics and madmen By some means lie suecccded in conveying knowledge of his deplorable situation to persons outside^ and an investigation of the mattei was instituted!
